leisurely Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 We had big storm last night in Bangna and it is cloudy again. Cooled it down for a bit, but also brought out 4 baby cobras and a medium sized one. Where's mama though, that is the 74 million baht question.

TLloyd Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Left Chiang Mai last Wednesday after 3 weeks in the North (CM, CR & MHS). I would have killed for a storm to clean the air & extinguish some, if not all of the fires. I leave & you get rain, just my luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could see lightning in the distance to the North, at midnight, and finally had a heavy shower about 03.30. Heavenly ! I went outside, and stood in the rain, for the sheer enjoyment of it !
